Mission Wine & Wine Glass Rack - follow up

very nice…

-- Matt, Napa, CA...fun is beautiful...just trying to have some fun...

Now I have a better idea of how you get the glasses out, thanks! I usually just do the same with a hole bigger than the slot, but never from the back. I might steal that idea the next time I do one of these.

Thanks for sharing this fine design…Blkcherry

Great! I had my Christmas gift figured out for this year and I had to open this post…

Looks great and thanks for the additional details.

how did you attach the wine glass rails to the posts? I can’t tell from the image.

I attached the glass rails to the posts using large pins (1/2 inch) for strength. I needed the rails to attach to the face of the posts so there was room to tilt the glasses for removal (as shown in the picture).

I wanted to keep the design light and decided against adding corbels or brackets to support the shelves – the glasses are light so the shelves are plenty sturdy.

So you just picked up some 1/2 inch dowels? I was inspired by your piece, I decided that I will be making one here soon! I drew the modified plans up on Sketch Up. I left the mission style, but kept some of the same components.

If you know how to post sketch up on here, let me know and I’ll share the goods. Thanks!
